Got Cancer? Sorry, There’s No App for That
Summary
The situation is even worse for so called “neglected diseases.” Investors who are looking for yields beyond those available in the equity and bond markets often look at start-ups, hoping to get in on the ground floor of the next Apple or Amgen.There’s a limited pool of investment money, and many VCs can put these funds to work in one of the more highly favored industries these days, such as software development.Opportunities include mobile phone apps, social media sites, and cloud computing and backup solutions.While both software and genetic engineers need top of the line computer gear, lab researchers also need a significant amount of expensive equipment and consumable supplies.In fact, achieving success in cutting-edge genomics research these days is going to depend on having excellent software to analyze the Big Data that is rapidly accumulating in our server farms.
